[7] DSLR Scale
This function is designed for some DSLR
cameras(Canon 5D, 550D and Nikon D7000) that output different resolution from the operation mode (Playback, Live/REC Full, Live/REC 16:9). NIKON In StandBy/Record mode of NIKON, actual resolution of the output signal from HDMI terminal is 952x634, failing to display 16:9 aspect ratio and making marginal blank area. Activating DSLR SCALE function will scale the 952x634 raster image to fill the full screen. SONY In StandBy/Record mode of SONY, actual resolution of the output signal from HDMI terminal is 1440x1080, failing to display 16:9 aspect ratio and making marginal blank area. Activating DSLR SCALE function will scale the 1440x1080 raster image to fill the full screen.

Select the Camera model in the [Picture]- [DSLR Camera] menu.

CANON In StandBy mode of Canon 5D Mark II, 1080i of HD resolution is indicated. However, real output resolution is 1620x1080 so blank area is displayed on the screen because the 16:9 aspect ratio is not realized.

In this case, use DSLR SCALE function to enlarge

the 1620x1080 image and display full screen. output resolution is SD(480p). 640x390 not 720x480.

In Recording mode of CANON 5D Mark II, the Although it is SD, the real output resolution is DSLR SCALE function scales the 640390 image
to 1280x800(panel resolution) and display full screen.

Note

1. When you compare the circle chart or the camera shooting chart with DSLR connected monitor(HDMI) and HDMI to SDI Conversion connected monitor, The function of Live/Rec 16:9 mode should be selected to compare circle and it is equal to its actual. If the circle is compared in Live/Rec Full mode, the output of the circle is deformed. 2. Both EVF-035W-3G connected DSLR and EVF-035W-3G connected HDMI to SDI Conversion should be compared to cirlce in Zeroscan mode. It is deformed if user selects in Overscan and Underscan mode.
